Axeleon Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Hey, I recently got back into Skyrim, and wanted to try Dawnguard. My problem is that whenever I start with it activated in the 'data files' tab on the launch menu, the game starts up and stops when the Skyrim logo appears. No text or options pop up, just the logo and that's it. What am I doing wrong, if anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modder3434 Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 are you running patch 1.8? if so revert to 1.7, Dawnguard already has a few bugs, but 1.8 makes the game damn near unplayable for the majority of the masses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axeleon Posted November 6, 2012 Author Share Posted November 6, 2012 Yea, I'm currently on 1.7.7, and it still doesn't work. I have the 1.7.7 script dragon and skse installed as well, if thats important at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

modder3434 Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 complety uninstall sounds of skyrim. including removing it from your data folder. There was a thread about ths a while ago, havn't checked on it in a while, but basiclly SoS was casuing issues with people's games, including mine [i had random ctds] see if that fixes it.

Axeleon Posted November 7, 2012 Author Share Posted November 7, 2012 No, that didn't work either. I think it's worth mentioning that without Dawnguard enabled, the game opens up the menu without any problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's worth mentioning that without Dawnguard enabled, the game opens up the menu without any problems. Then we are stuck, until Bethesda helps fix it. since we don't have every tool they used to make the game, some solutions are out of our reach. If you really want more advanced options as a vamp or werewolf there are some excellent mods on the nexus thaat should tie you over until Dawnguard is fixed. Tales of Lycanthrophy or ToL for short Belua Sanguinare Revisited - Dynamic Vampires And now we play the waiting game.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there any good mods that implement that without the expansion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
